Hi!  I have a lot of hardware experience with the innards of the 
IBM compatible world, but I've run into an area that I know little
about: Setting up systems for visually impaired people.

From what I glean from the mountain of docs I've been given, there are 
these key areas:  Computer, scanner, voice synthesizer, and OCR package.
Anyone out there have any experience with these?  I'm looking for the best
bang for the buck, so reviews would be nice.

Is there a newsgroup that deals with this?  I couldn't find one...

thanks for any help!!!
